What is the value of Minnesota's natural capital?

Bonnie Keeler, Lead Scientist, Natural Capital Project, Institute on the Environment, University of Minnesota

Accounting for the full costs of environmental change requires approaches that integrate ecological and socio-economic research.  Keeler will present new work on the social and economic impacts of changes in land management and land use, with a focus on the value of clean water. Keeler will also highlight ongoing work at the Natural Capital Project designed to inform conservation and restoration decisions in Minnesota and around the world.
